Experts say that the scale of the epidemic in Shanghai is larger than that in Wuhan. Official analysis of why the epidemic in Changchun continues to rise
On the 1st, Shanghai added 260 new local confirmed cases and 6,051 asymptomatic infections, and the number of daily local infections continued to rise.
From March 1 to April 1, Shanghai has reported more than 40,000 local infections.
The Shanghai Municipal Health and Health Commission said on the 2nd that the number of positive infections in the city increased from the previous two days because the screening scope was wider.
As of 24:00 on April 1, more than 14 million people had been sampled for the first nucleic acid test in Shanghai's second batch of Puxi areas.
At present, the epidemic situation in Shanghai is severe and complex, and the task of prevention and control is extremely arduous.
The first batch of sealing and screening areas will be controlled in a step-by-step manner based on the screening results.
Chen Erzhen, the leader of the medical treatment team at the centralized isolation point in Shanghai and the vice president of Ruijin Hospital, said in an interview with the media that compared with the Wuhan epidemic that year, Shanghai is better in preparation and experience.
The scale of the epidemic in Shanghai is larger than that in Wuhan, but the severity of the disease is lower than that in Wuhan.
As of April 1, more than 47,000 local infections have been reported in Jilin Province in this round of the epidemic.
Among them, Changchun "came from behind", surpassing Jilin City, which had the most severe epidemic before, and became the area with the most confirmed cases in mainland China in this round of epidemic.
The Jilin Provincial Health and Health Commission said on the 2nd that the recent increase in the epidemic situation in Changchun City is related to the occurrence of clustered epidemics in public places such as farmers markets and construction sites in the city and caused community infections. It is necessary to quickly reverse the development trend of the epidemic.
The epidemic situation in Jilin City and Changchun City Jiutai District has been effectively contained, but it is still necessary to stabilize the results of epidemic prevention and control and reduce the number of new infections every day.
Infections imported from other places appear in many places in Shandong, and some areas in Quanzhou lift lockdown control

In this regard, all parts of Shandong have taken immediate measures to carry out nucleic acid testing, flow traceability, and isolation and transfer to quickly cut off the chain of transmission and minimize the epidemic in the shortest possible time.
As of 16:00 on April 2, Fujian Province has reported a total of 1,155 local confirmed cases (including 1,044 in Quanzhou) and 2,096 asymptomatic infections (including 2,021 in Quanzhou).
